Fox News has learned from sources who were on the ground in Benghazi that an urgent request from the CIA annex for military back-up during the attack on the U.S. consulate and subsequent attack several hours later on the annex itself was denied by the CIA chain of command -- who also told the CIA operators twice to "stand down" rather than help the ambassador's team when shots were heard at approximately 9:40 p.m. in Benghazi on Sept. 11.

Former Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods was part of a small team who was at the CIA annex about a mile from the U.S. consulate where Ambassador Chris Stevens and his team came under attack. When he and others heard the shots fired, they informed their higher-ups at the annex to tell them what they were hearing and requested permission to go to the consulate and help out. They were told to "stand down," according to sources familiar with the exchange. Soon after, they were again told to "stand down."

What a WEASEL, General Dempsey! Dempsey was in the room watching the whole terrorist attack unfold. He probably watched and did nothing while Ty Woods was murdered. Then he later blames an obscure guy who liked an obscure video.

Dempsey is a Lying Sack of Excrement.

(0BAMA CHOSE to watch a MUSLIM SNUFF FILM rather than a HEROIC AMERICAN RESCUE FILM)

Forgive my post focusing on the “political slant” as I know people have died over this horrible event. But I find it interesting this news breaks on Friday....secondly, maybe this is being leaked on purpose so “the one” can start a war/or attack Libya and those responsible? Bring up those poll numbers? Or maybe its politically too late.

Failure to defend the sovereign embassy is a failure to defend the USA. That’s a violation of the Oath of Office. Lying and covering it up - when does the crime cross into the realm of aiding and abetting the enemy, e.g. treason?

Obama, Biden, Panetta, Petraeus and Clinton..disgrace, dereliction of duty and treason.....no matter what happens in this election these individuals should be held accountable for the murder of the four men in Libya.

Were any of you listening to Rush today? If you weren’t and have Rush 24/7, I encourage you to listen.

Two different service people called in and explained exactly what the protocol is when our troops are in danger. It was incredible. These guys both say that there was no way bammy didn’t get the message ................they were both well spoken guys, and laid the protocol for such an event out very plainly.

Forget impeachment: he won’t be re-elected anyway. After the election bring criminal charges for dereliction of duty and oath of office, treason, and anything else that can stick against Obama and all other involved. They need to be punished!

I heard and believe them.

I called Speaker Boehner's office # 202-225-0600

I urge everyone to call and let him know we expect more than a bunch of hearings after the election. I want these people held accountable!

Dempsey wants this cover-up dead and buried just like the two former Navy Seals that he abandoned to the murderous Muslim terrorists.

Dempsey also wants any of these CIA personnel telling the truth to be silenced immediately.

General Dempsey Tacitly Endorses Barack Obama

By: streiff (Diary) | September 8th, 2012 at 02:02 PM |

Two weeks ago Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Martin Dempsey waded into the 2012 political campaign by criticizing a ad run by a Super PAC composed of former Special Operations veterans opposing the re-election of Barack Obama.

At the time, General Dempsey made this statement as reported in The Hill:

If someone uses the uniform, whatever uniform, for partisan politics, I am disappointed because I think it does erode that bond of trust we have with the American people, Dempsey said during his flight back from a trip to Afghanistan and Iraq.

Obama White House On Benghazi Emails Nothing To See Here  Just Move Along Now

by Ulsterman on October 25, 2012 with 7 Comments in News

Refusing to answer even the simplest of questions regarding who knew what and when, the Obama White House is now clearly counting on the American people not paying attention to the looming Benghazi Massacre scandal in the days leading up to the presidential election

The regular activities at the Consulate were less sensitive than those at “The Farm” (aka annex). Is it good to lead attackers from the ceremonial papre-shuffling place to the secret squirrel place....?

Cuz THAT is what they might have ended up doing.

Brave? Yes. Smart? Sounds brutal, but sorry...not smart.

Was the bisexual muzzie a coward not to order in a lead tsunami from above? ABSOLUTELY....!!!!!!!

Romney has been very smart. He knew something and set Obama up in that debate. And both Obama and the moderator took the bait. The the media started to walk, not run, with the Benghazi situation. At the time I thought that it would suck all the air out of the campaign and push everything else aside for a few days. But no, this is going to have legs all the way to the election. The ex-seals family is kicking the crap out of Obama and Hillary in the media now. They are pissed and have gone Honey Badger.

I can assure you of one thing. Unlike Obama Romney will be paying attention at the intelligence briefings not that he and Ryan has access. That is a good thing as far as I'm concerned.

I was not a big Romney fan a few weeks ago but I am now. He has some real skills and they are the right skills for right now!

This POS could not stop spiking the football when it came to UBL. They knew about the whole operation.
They know nothing about Benghazi or how to counterattack when their on the phone with a Tier One Operator.
Oh, and please tell me there was not a C-130 gunship on station!

I don’t care about impeachment so much as I care about seeing him and his traitorous cronies in jail.

From what I can tell, he’s been operating a traitorous and criminal enterprise all along. Lefties accused Bush of all sorts of things, but they were all the variety of “I don’t like his policies, so I will call him a criminal or a monster.” 0bama, on the other hand, has been corrupt and embezzling from the taxpayer since day one of his presidency. Actually since long before that. This is not a matter of disliking his politics. This is a matter of criminal behavior.

(Don't be stupid. We have politicians for that.)

General Dempsey, who risked life and limb calling that huge security threat, the preacher Terry Jones, to accuse him of being responsible for the whole affair and asking him not to show The Video. Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reduced to an Obama tool.

They clearly did not deny that the requests had been denied, leaving just as clearly the implication that State and/or Whitehouse itself was responsible for the denials. Check it out again here: <Petraeus Throws Obama Under the Bus>

In addition, it is going to be very important that a lot of very important business be accomplished quickly. Impeachment proceedings would squander not only time but “political capital”, and the important business of undoing the last four years damage would be delayed or even left undone.

Hearings, and complete airing of what occurred in Benghazi, as well as other hearings: fine. Impeachment, though, will not accomplish a thing.

IF the hearings were to discover that one of the wilder conspiracy theories to be true, for example, “The plan was to allow Stevens to be kidnapped and exchanged for the ‘blind sheik’”, THEN more drastic action would be supported. However, on the much more likely event that President maintains he was chicken, and simply decided to not go in because he believed they would die anyway at the cost of jeopardizing other troops, that IS the type of call a commander is entitled to make, even if I disagree with such a call.

Think it easily - and definitely - a 'Treason'. Arming al Qaeda; for 'Jihad' certainly should qualify as well.
